Software, nesting and toolpath
Nesting, tool paths, lead-ins, layer parameters and the control software. A part that cut fine last week and not this week is often not a machine fault at all: it is the program, the layer it landed on, or a parameter set that was never saved.

- Manual nesting reports not enough parts — check the sheet size and the part quantity actually selected.

- Piercing count comes out as 0 — the pierce point is not being registered, usually a layer or process setting.

- Not all parts got nested — check the remaining space and the nesting timeout rather than the part count.
Original record
怎么解决零件未全部排完的问题
- A part contains a broken contour — close or repair the geometry before it reaches the machine; it will not cut cleanly otherwise.

如何只设置零件内轮廓或者轮廓工艺

- Splitting, measuring and bridging curves with a base point — the base point is what keeps the geometry closed.

- Piercing in one, two or three stages — each stage has its own height and dwell, and mismatched heights are a common cause of blowouts.
Original record
一、二、三阶段穿孔
- Typical three-stage piercing heights — use them as the starting baseline, then adjust from there.
Original record
通常三级穿孔高度
- Two-stage piercing heights for thinner material where three stages over-complicate the cycle time.
Original record
二级穿孔高度
- Piercing height set unreasonably — check this before blaming power or gas.
Original record
穿孔高度设置不合理
- Blowout during piercing — reduce the piercing duty cycle, increase negative focus, and check the pierce height.
Original record
穿孔过程中爆孔
- On high-power sources piercing blows out far more easily; the piercing ramp has to be re-tuned for the power level rather than reused from a lower-power machine.

- The two piercing modes — knowing which one the machine is in explains most blowout complaints.

- Lower the peak power — the first move when piercing blows out or the pierce hole is oversized.
Original record
降低峰值功率
- If the pierce is failing to break through, increase piercing power in 5% steps rather than jumping.
Original record
增加打孔功率,每次5%
- Use the power curve instead of a flat power setting — it is what keeps a contour consistent through corners.
Original record
使用功率曲线
- Optimise the corner dwell parameter — this is the single biggest lever on corner dross.
Original record
优化拐角延时参数
- Corner dwell time set unreasonably — too short leaves dross, too long burns the corner.
Original record
拐角停留时间参数不合理
- Reduce the corner feed rate moderately rather than slowing the whole contour.
Original record
适当降低拐角行进速度
- Change the cutting order — it is often the cheapest fix for heat distortion and tip-up.
Original record
改变切割顺序
- If the automatic order is poor, sort manually. When the toolpath runs Y ascending and the finished scrap lifts up, the head trips a collision alarm — change the cutting order and the problem goes away.
Original record
效果不理想,需要手动修改排序方式。如果遇到切割轨迹是按照Y从小到大,但是实际生产中出现切完的废料翘起来,容易报警切割头碰板,但是可以调整切割顺序去规避这个问题。
- Use speed mode where the machine supports it — it holds the feed rate through geometry changes better than power mode.
Original record
使用速度模式
- If speed mode is not supported on this configuration, the corner behaviour has to be solved with dwell and power curve instead.
Original record
不支持速度模式
- The tube corner process setting lifts the head by the configured amount at corners; it also helps when Z-axis rigidity cannot be improved further.
Original record
可开启管拐角工艺设定,设置
- That option raises the head by the set value at each corner, and is worth enabling when Z-axis rigidity cannot be increased any further.
Original record
会在切割拐角时会额外上抬设定值,同时,如果Z轴刚性已无法再提升,也可勾选
- Enable special edge-finding in the global parameters.
Original record
在全局参数里面启用特殊寻边
- On a bus system this is switched on from the global parameters rather than from the machine-side menu.
Original record
若系统为总线系统,可在全局参数中开启
- Edge-finding offset: a side distance difference of 2 means shifting the head right by 1, and right is X-positive, so the correction is X+1.
Original record
侧边距离差是2,需要将切割头右移1,右方向为X轴正方向,即为X+1
- Cutting-head collision detection — worth enabling on tube machines where tip-up is common.
Original record
切割头干涉检测
- Check that the speed gain matches the drive parameter; a mismatch shows up as position error rather than as an alarm.
